Getting the Most Out of a Business Conference

Welcome back to another episode of the Not So Wimpy Entrepreneur Podcast!

 

What conferences are you hoping to get to this year?

 

I’ve been to a lot of different conferences over the years, so I've learned so much about how to prepare myself to get the most out of them.

 

I truly believe that conferences are a great investment. I know they can get pricey, but they are great learning experiences, motivators, and places to make new friends. 

 

If you've ever been to a business conference, you know that while it is all of those things, it can also be overwhelming.

 

To try to make it less overwhelming, I’m breaking down 5 tips that I think are going to help you to get the most out of conferences based on what I have learned and done at all the conferences I've been to.

 

Episode 76 Takeaways: 

+ You are not meant to listen to every presentation or take action on everything that you hear at a conference.

+ Pick what sessions you are going to go to before the conference.

+ Do what’s going to help you be successful. 

+ Choose a note-taking system that works for you.

+ Turn off notifications or use a device without social media on it.

+ Be flexible and open to changing your schedule.

+ Have an accountability partner.

+ Take time to prioritize your action item list after the conference.

 

The tips that I have for you in this episode will help you to get the most out of your conferences and retreats this year and for many years ahead, so tune in!
